  If you are accessing the pdf via the web, right click the file at the web 
page link, and select the "save target as" option. Select the CD drive and 
wait. It may not work. 

  If that process does not work, get it on to a desktop locally then transfer a 
copy to the CD. 

  There are a series of problems with saving pdf files when they are open in 
web browsers. That you are trying to save on to a RW CD is another obstacle 
(and I found out about a fatal type a couple of years ago with CorelDraw). 

  If that doesn't work, go and find the network nazi's who have changed things 
and have them hung, drawn and quartered. (I don't recommend feeding them to 
lions anymore, as lions are endangered and network nazi's are known to cause 
serious cases of lethal indigestion.)
